    Learned that when my dad past a few yrs back. He was a vet and they had the 21 gun salute and folded the flag from his coffin.

    AMEN @wore out not everyone has to serve to be a Patriot. But I agree with you. If you don’t like it leave.

    I was in the draft toward the end of Vietnam. It ended before my number came up. I'm ashamed to admit that I was happy not to have to go. Our servicemen were dealt a bad hand in that one without the support of the country.

    To those of you who have served, thank you. My hat is off to you.

    Politics aside, our folks that got Bahgdadi last night should be proud.

    Agree 100%, but those boys will tell you that it’s just another day at the office and go out tonight and do the same thing — just won’t make the news or the debate club

    I've only ever been on elds "technically". I can and have run paper I just prefer the keeptruckin app because I can edit it and not have to start a new sheet. I prefer not logging anything period because only I know when I'm tired etc etc etc the guvment dont need to tell me when I can and cant drive my truck yada yada yada

    on your original question - if you are flying out to pick up the truck. You must either take a 10 hour break prior to going on duty or you must log your travel time as line 4 “On-Duty Not Driving” and then the trip back as you normally would. The reason cited is you are traveling at the behest of the carrier, I received a detailed explanation once from the scale at Dunsmuir CA and some CSA points to help me remember. I had left the receipt for my plane ticket in with my paperwork - not realizing that it was anything other than like driving to work in my car.

    I am sure there are many ways you can wiggle around this but that is what the man would like you to do
